connect is one of many online game creation templates that flippidad Flippity calls it Connecto, but the gameplay is exactly like classic connect 4 board game (I’m sure for trademark reasons Flippity can’t use that name for their Connecto game template).
In a Connecto game, students see a question and have to answer it correctly to get a marker on the board. The object of the game is to connect four markers in a row before your opponent does. Of course, there’s also a bit of strategy involved in where you place your markers to connect yours while blocking your opponent from connecting theirs. Check out my new video embedded below to see how Connecto is played and how you can create your own with flippity’s Free Google Sheets template.

Educational Applications
You can create a Connecto game for your students to play in teams as a fun review exercise before a test or quiz. You might also consider having your students make the games themselves and challenge each other.
